The change in recording video is unbelievable.

Here, I made a video showing the change:


Hehe nice example :)
Obviously for this loud situation "Loud environment" was the most adequate preset ;)

However even if the condition were too loud for the new standard "balanced" preset, saturation don't transform into something *so terrible* - thanks to optimized digital processing parameters.

I just wanted to report that going from P to Q-T4 seems to have improved my battery life noticeably! Thanks!

I was getting horrible battery when I switched from O to P so I switched to FireBird kernel and it has been outstanding. May come back and give Q a try sometime. Not sure why the change to P was bad for me.

I tried FireBird but had huge issues with the volume, I love the volume increases in speedmod way too much, maybe I'll try FB again if he ends up adding it. I love speedmod but I get bothered by the 98% charge issue (I'm a little OCD about it I suppose) as I know its not really import

Yeah the never on 100 thing bothers me too even though any other kernel would drop twice as quickly on my phone

Not sure what you mean by volume issues as mine has been outstanding. But the battery % issue happened to me as well on Speedmod but not with FireBird.

Battery happens on speedmod because of its 2.2.1 based whereas FireBird is 2.2. I found volume to be REALLY low compared to speedmod for me. Maybe I'll give it a try again in the future

    The original SpeedMod kernel, now available for AT&T Captivate users! This kernel aims to be fast, compatible, stable, and have good battery life. It makes our Galaxy S run the way it should.

    This kernel is for the AT&T Captivate (SGH-i897)

    The forum thread for the GT-I9000 version is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=822756

    WARNING: Before you try any lagfix, make sure that you have enough free space on your Internal SD. You should have at least more free space than data+dbdata+cache combined.

    Latest K13E (12-Apr) - Voodoo Sound v7. Lowmemorykiller fixes. Improved display sharpness using AMOLED processing mode in MDNIE. Support for voice calls through headphones. Check here for more info and downloads.

    Thanks to sasovics and rpicaso for the I897 boot logo!

    >>> Click here for the installation procedure using Odin.

    >>> If you have questions, please read the FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions first!

    >>> What is the SpeedMod kernel?

    Latest features:

    - Compiled using codesourcery 2010.09: Faster and more battery efficient
    - The only properly working Tiny RCU implementation, thanks to Paul McKenney
    - More efficient: Removed debug logging from kernel and Android
    - Most updated version of my Enhanced Universal Lagfix fork with improved stability
    - Full Android 2.2.1 ROM compatibility

    This kernel has:

    - Based on JPX Android 2.2.1 kernel source
    - Works on all stock Froyo 2.2 and 2.2.1 ROMs and popular custom ROMs
    - 340MB RAM and all features should work
    - Enhanced version of sztupy's Universal Lagfix
    - Includes neldar's BackLightNotification 2.3 from https://github.com/project-voodoo/backlightnotification/tree/master/kernel_patches/
    - Sharpness (AMOLED mode) & color fixes for the screen
    - SpeedMod: Replaced kernel jhash2 with jhash3
    - Includes my Startup Tweaks from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=813309
    - Adjusted kernel HZ value to improve smoothness
    - Uses BFQ IO scheduler by default, from http://algo.ing.unimo.it/people/paolo/disk_sched/sources.php
    - Updated ext4 code in kernel from http://www2.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tytso/ext4-patches/
    - Properly working Tiny RCU patch for better speed and efficiency from http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=ke...it;h=9b1d82fa1611706fa7ee1505f290160a18caf95d
    - Patched lowmemorykiller for compatibility with Tiny RCU from http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=ke...ff;h=5545554aac04918ece318270d63cbfcb015577a9
    - Optimized compiler flags: -O2 -mcpu=cortex-a8 -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp

    --------------------------------

    FOR BEGINNERS:

    This kernel is based on sztupy's Universal Lagfix: Lagfix and root options are accessible by booting into the Recovery Menu.

    To get the best speed, it is recommended that you enable all Tweaks from the Recovery Menu. Tweaks are under SpeedMod features. Info on Tweaks: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=813309

    How to root: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8896862&postcount=90

    Kernel HZ value: HZ=500 is smoother, HZ=256 is Samsung default.

    Memory configs (K10J and later):

    CONFIG_ANDROID_PMEM_MEMSIZE_PMEM=2048

    THANKS: Big thanks to existz and xcaliburinhands for the i9000-to-i897 patch.

    Updated test: K12Q-T7:

    This version is unbelievably smooth!

    Android Logger (logcat) disabled by default.
    Kernel debug messages have been disabled.
    Fixed the super loud notifications with Voodoo Sound.

    Changes from K12P:

    - Disabled Android Logger (can be re-enabled via Tweaks)
    - Disabled all kernel debug messages (printk) for efficiency
    - Changed boot logo to I897 logo for AT&T Captivate version
    - Changed /cache to ext4nj in recommended ext4 lagfix to fix large Market downloads
    - Optional IPv6 Privacy support in Tweaks
    - Voodoo Sound v2 compatible
    - Fixed loud notification problem with headphones
    - Fixed popping / clicking noise when music and FM radio is stopped / started
    - Better FM Radio sound:
    - - Really removed the high pass filter and DRC from FM Radio (restores full bass)
    - - Turn on 4FS mode for ADC in FM Radio (smoother high frequencies)
    - - Turn on 128x oversampling for ADC and DAC in FM Radio mode
    - Adjusted volume of FM Radio and Media Playback to be similar
    - General sound quality improvements:
    - - Maximized digital mixer output to improve SNR and resolution
    - - 128x oversampling option in Voodoo Sound enabled by default
    - - Explicitly disable DRC and NG during media playback, if +1.5dB mode is NOT selected

    For the AT&T Captivate version, ignore changes for FM Radio.

    Test version K12S-T3:

    - Added 3-pole headset calling support: voice calls go via normal stereo headphones if attached, otherwise they go via the earpiece
    - Fixed mic problem, now the mic works
    - Voodoo app headphone amplifier control also controls headphone output level for headphone voice calls
    - Voodoo Sound v3

    Credit goes to xcaliburinhand for some of the source code changes.
    Unfortunately xcaliburinhand's patch didn't work out of the box - the mic didn't work. I had to modify the driver further to get the mic to work.

    *** Note: The voice call sound doesn't automatically switch between the earpiece and headphones if you plug-in or unplug the headphones while the call is in-progress. You have to toggle the speaker mode to make it switch.

    SpeedMod + Voodoo Sound test version!

    K12L-T5:

    Changes from K12K:
    - FM Radio sound quality improvement: removed Dynamic Range Compression
    - Voodoo Sound v1: FM radio bass fix, controllable headphone output via app
    - rear speaker volume +1 for media
    - light sensor polling interval changed to 2s instead of 0.5s
    (saves battery, more stable brightness levels)
    - light sensor sensitivity adjusted so that the screen doesn't turn bright so easily
    (saves battery and reduces screen burn)
    - adjustments to IO Tweak (super smooth now!)
    - changed battery level polling interval to 60 seconds, from 5 seconds

    Note that you need Supercurio's Voodoo app to adjust the headphone level. If u don't install it, the default level is the same level as K12K (+1 from Nexus S, or +3 from SGS).

    PS. The FM radio sound is really awesome after those voice filters have been removed!
